An exceptional advocate in a complex employment dispute

When our company faced a high-stakes wrongful termination lawsuit, we turned to Jody Boquist at Littler. With over three decades of experience, her deep knowledge of Illinois employment law was immediately evident. Jody didn't just manage the litigation; she provided strategic counsel that considered our long-term business health. Her recognition in Best Lawyers for Employment Law - Management was well-earned, as she expertly navigated the complexities of labor and employment litigation. Jody's approach was both thorough and pragmatic, explaining every legal nuance without jargon, which allowed our leadership team to make informed decisions. She secured a favorable settlement that protected our company's reputation and financial interests. Her professionalism, combined with a genuine understanding of the human elements involved, made an incredibly stressful situation manageable. We are profoundly grateful for her guidance and would recommend her to any organization needing top-tier employment counsel in Chicago.
